Cigars to the airport ?

The Cank

So I leave for Jamaica tomorrow and I want to take some nice sticks with me (including my opus X ) Now my question is.... If I throw some sticks in a ccom zip bag that all of us have gotten and toss a humi pillow in with it and throw it in my carry - on will they let me take them ? I will become quit hostile if they make me throw away 5 or 6 of my good sticks....

You will have no problems carrying them on. I do it all the time. Oh and haywood is right about the cutter and torch lighter.

Never assume anything. It would absolutly suck if you got down there and there where no cutters in sight, and you left your perfectly good one back home. All I'm saying is be prepared for the worst if you don't bring your supplies.

Ill throw a cutter in my big luggage just in case. Now question number two lets say " someone I may know " may want to bring some Cubans back with them...... what would the best way for that person to go about doing that ? ;-)

If that place is truely "all inclusive" as they say it is they should be able to get you a cutter and lighter (or at least some matches).

I would wear shorts and a button up shirt, while your at it, don't wear underwear too, just in case the TSA wants to give you the goods.

I've been to the Sandals Resort in Jamica. They have all kinds of find cigars and the cutters there. It's for the tourists, not the locals. The locals smoke but it ain't tobacco. Expect to get asked to buy the local brand of "tobacco" real quick. We got asked at the airport

Very nice all ! thanks for all the advice. I am now brushing up on my fake cuban look a likes so hopefully i will be all good. I know there is a cigar shop down there called rainbow or something but don't know how trust worthy it is so if you guys say there is a cigar shop at the sandals then I will probably get them there. talk at ya when i get back !

If you need to brush up on Cuban fakes you should not be buying Cubans there, even if they have legit there they'd be too few and far between.....when you are spending that kind of money do it here so you know you're getting the real deal, I can fully vouch for these guys I have spent many $$ here and they GUARANTEE worlwide delivery including the U.S: http://cigar-smoke.com/ I have found one of the misnomers people have on Cuban cigars people think they are cheaper in exotic lands, they are expensive and faked to death even in Cuba.......I have been to Jamaica however never tried to buy cigars there....what I can tell you is I have been to 5 star resorts many times in the Dominican and believe it or not the vendors that are actually allowed in the resort to setup and sell their wares even slide fakes in now these are vendors not the resort itself but you would think you wouldn't get scammed by people the resort actually let in maybe they just can't stay on top of it or just don't care who knows!!!!

They do!! We stayed at the one in Ocho Rios last Xmas (VERY nice resort!) but the cutter is a cheap piece of chit! It'll get the job done though... even says "Sandals" on it so makes a nice keepsake, but you wont want to use it any more than you HAVE to! Have a fun & safe trip!

Im pretty good at spotting the fakes and I did pack a cutter so hopefully they dont snatch it but if they do its all good I have more ! Taking about 10 sticks with me so hopefully they don't feel like being stupid because i will not give them us easily.... Since you all seem to be saing to stay away from any cigars from down there I may just smoke what i take with me and be happy knowing I have some very fine cigars to smoke on the beach !

I can't see why they'd have a problem with a guillotine cutter, pretty hard to hurt someone with it... I have at least a dozen of the "disposables" so I'd throw two in different luggage pockets.

Last time I was at Beaches, the cheapest cigar in their shop was over $20 and I'm sure they weren't real good. For that money, I'd rather buy a sampler on here that I know will be good. Have a great time on your trip and remember, if you have one drink or a hundred, it's the same price.
